- I want to make this clear, I absolutely love this bike. Hands down one of my all time favorite bikes I have ever thrown my leg over. I just thought it would be fun to make a video of me picking out 5 things I didn't quite like about it. I have a video on 5 things I love about this bike coming out soon so hit that subscribe button, you won't want to miss it!

The only thing I hate is not owning one
You bought a dedicated MX bike to use it on the trails, and now complain that it doesn't have trail features? KTM makes more trail bikes than anyone else. You have/had plenty of better options for your kind of riding, yet you chose an MX bike. Those of us who actually use MX bikes for MX don't want silly things like low fuel lights cuz they're just another open circuit to potentially cause problems down the road.
I love MX bikes they put a much bigger smile on my face than trail bikes, I do all kinds of riding: trails to mx to xc and overall I prefer my mx bikes. If you you have an MX bike like you say you do then you would know that most every new bike has low fuel light indicators on them now. My 22' CRF 250r (MX bike) has one and last years KTM MX bikes had a dedicated Fi light that light up when you were low on fuel. I completely agree with you in the fact that I am all about a simple bike with less gadgets to go wrong on dedicated MX bikes. Today manufactures are doing everything they can to have one leg up on the other and unfortunately lately that has meant all these useless tech features that most don't care about.
Agree, although yeah I prefer the orange frame, (black spokes and silver hubs is a great contrast) and some other points are valid, but "hate"? Overall, "wah, wah, I got a brand new 10.5 k, bad ass mx bike. Poor me, 😢.
@@Doc-zg3xm I agree but in the world of CZcams "5 thinks I kinda don't like" about the bike isn't a click worthy title.
I bought the 300sx and it’ll be a dedicated gncc bike. Only thing i need to change is a bigger tank and I’m set. I hate 18” rear wheels and the flywheel on the 300xc kills the power too much imo that’s why i went with the sx model.
yeah the mx bike look good tho
KTM only makes the frame orange on special editions and the last model year of a generation. If you want an orange frame you can take it apart and powdercoat it for under $200. The rest of your complaints are subjective and typical KTM. The FI light indicates low fuel.
No kick starter is number on for me on the new tbi bike .
Number 2 is low stator output.
I agree with you there. I hate the idea that you can't kick start if there is a dead battery. I will be testing that out tomorrow when its -20 to see if it holds up in cold weather....
@@kylecorbett ys lithium battery s don't like cold.
I agree with you on the frame, hubs, and graphics. But I want to go with an orange scheme on this bike. I've had others that I wanted to go a different route and the black frame is a lot more neutral for that. The black doesn't really add anything, but at least it doesn't distract. I might powdercoat mine which means stripping a brand new bike. Re: Hubs- I would pay the difference up front for at least the black hubs.
Firm/hard seat is almost a must for mx, u wanna be to clintch ur legs onto something thats not too soft, need to able to side on seat quite resonably fast and smooth where soft you seem to sink making sliding more difficult.
Black frames are better, easier to change overall bike color. Heard the '23 XCs have fuel low indicator in the hr meter. Seats do need help...
The nice thing about the black frame is your boots won't discolor them lol, the xc version of this bike is a $2k premium over the sx which is just silly.
@@kylecorbettagree with you 100%. I bought the sz bc it was $2700 cheaper than the xc and all i need to do to change it for gncc is 18” wheel, tank and maybe a flywheel, $800 to make it full gncc bike, the $2700 they charge for the difference is absurd imo.
@@YZFMX256 Yeah it is. Not sure why the mark up is so much higher between the two, like you said it isn't more than $800 difference in parts.
@@YZFMX256 I had a 350sxf before my ‘23 300xc. 90% of the time it was so awesome I had no complaints. But 1st in the rocks was a little high, and 5th on fire roads was a little short. I was in the process of converting it, but the transmission made me change course
@@kylecorbett it’s a 6 speed on the xc and a 5 speed on the sx
Gutts soft-tall seat foam and sand it down with an orbital sander to 3/8” above stock height. You’ll settle in to below stock height and love the feel.
Did your 300 come with the random bog?
Maybe that's KTM's plan is to keep the graphics plain and white side panels and rear fender. So you can put on whatever graphics you want against a white background would look better.
Yeah that is a good point, I didn't think about that
one thing i don't like is that . The XC versions have "Giant" brand wheels, matte finish they suck to clean ,
I haven't had em but I have heard they are hard to clean.
I hate that I can’t find OEM Parts for the new TBI SX bikes
2020 model was my favourite ktm colour scheme black and orange.
my 2023 xc300 has low fuel indicator
Once the first thing was something about the graphics, I quit watching.
thanks for clicking ;)
The 300 XC does have a low fuel light. The fi light turns on and the hour meter says fuel
This is an SX model
@@kylecorbett correct. But in the video you stated you didn't know if any of the other bikes have low fuel lights. The SX models do not. The XC and I'm assuming then the 23 XC-Ws come out they will also have the fuel low light.
@@DannyDifalco Other bikes I am assuming would be other ktm sx bikes
Just about crapped myself seeing the title of this video ; but after watching I'm okay now ...
you convince me. thanks for your scientific review. I gonna buy a scooter.
What a whiner. LMAO
Just trying to give people some insight, it was really hard to make this video because there are 100 things I love about the bike. It is honestly perfection. So much better than the TPI 2 strokes from KTM, such a noticeable difference when you hop on the two bikes.
u said u thought ktms were always black and orange yet last year they had more blue idk what ur talking about for the looks
2022 is my favorite KTM color scheme I love the blue they added and the orange frame. 23 model year I am not as big of a fan because of the purple they added and the black frame. KTM's HISTORICALLY have been mainly black and orange for the last 20 years.
The FI light stays solid lit up and that tell you your low on fuel
Atleast, it’s suppose to.. mine does
There isn't a dedicated Fi light on this bike like there has been in years past of KTM race bikes.
The FI light should be where the hour meter is between the number plate and the upper triple clamp… the hour meter has like a little dark square above it and that’s where the FI light is in that little dark square
@@Bimmere Awesome, thank you!
Taste is taste… you hate the colours? I loved it! The points you highlighted are very picky as you said…. But think positive… you can customize to the colours and graphics as you wish… could be a great 2023 project for you if you have time!
I love the bike man, it’s perfect. It’s so perfect that it was near impossible to make this video, that’s why I was so nit picky. KTM knocked it out of the park with this bike. Don’t worry… “5 things I love about the bike” is coming soon. (More like 50 things I love about the bike) lol
Just too much moaning not enough winning just get it on the line and beat all the 450's
Or when you enter a race tell em it's a 250 so your put in with the 250f's then you will have a massive power advantage it's almost Cheating but Winning is every thing 🏆
Its great for GNCC as well it's a great bike make it your own or just find another sport
Point 1-4 is about looks? Could have been just 1 point.
Buy a honda ... Trade it in! too many complaints for a gorgeous bike.
This bike have a two stroke oil reservatory?
No, you mix the oil and gas before filling it up.
EFI has a horrible bog!
Dudes complaining about 10g fun bike.
I like the black frame , not many people like color orange.
Yeah it doesn't look bad on the bike, surprisingly KTM fanboys prefer their orange frames. I personally think the '22 KTM's looked better. This isn't a bad design and it has grown on me for sure.
@@kylecorbett ... Do you think they are worth 12, 200 ? I'm wanting to buy a 300xc but the price is holding me back.
@@goodboyringo9716 Absolutely worth it but save your money and get the sx model.
My yz 125 lets you know you’re running out of fuel. It’ll idle high going into a corner and run like shit!!!
Can I have a bike 😂😂 no fr fr
I dont believe that bike model comes with a kick stand? 6 things I hate now.
Supercross/motocross bikes don’t come with a kick stand, this isn’t a trials bike its a track race bike
@@ryanlongley5052 Thank you for the clarification. But it doesn't seem like the bike is going to be used on a moto track.
I ride track and trails, since it's an mx bike it doesn't have one. The XC model comes with a kick stand however, is quite a bit more expensive!
@@mrrandy1 i never mentioned how the bike would be riden i was explaining why the bike was made with no kick stand
You bought the wrong bike
but the honda doesn't give you a great 2 stroke engine.
Very good point, nothing like mixing gas and hitting that power band. KTM is also a much better bike over the Hondas in general!
Man hate is a strong word. Really that bad? I don't hate anything you are describing.
I don’t “hate” anything about the bike. It’s actually my favorite bike of all time. For video purposes though it makes a much better title than “5 things I kinda don’t like”
Every thing he hates is things everyone that buys a bike and changes if they want dur to the lur every damn bike comes with silver hubs
wow I disagree on everything here!
😂😂 Nitpicking lmao at its finest. Gas light it’s a see thru tank. 😢
The tank is not see through at all lmao, its black plastic
@@kylecorbett haha yes. I guess the sx has a black tank and the xc has the one you can see like see-thru.
Half the things was just visual
lol I know man, this bike is honestly so close to perfect it was really hard to find 5 things that I didn't like about it haha. I had 50 things that I loved about it lol
Ktm is nice but for 13k out the door the fact is overpriced and over rated.
I agree it is expensive, but I do believe the price tag is worth it. This was just under 11k out the door and its leaps and bounds better than the Japanese bikes that a running around 10k out the door. I use to think they were over hyped and over priced but after having a few now, I totally get it. Once you get a KTM you don't go back
@@kylecorbett My 2017 automobile cost me 12k with 30k miles when I got it and not yet 5 years later has never given me any issues. There is no comparison between a Dirtbike and car that can take you across USA but yet cost the same. You have to understand that is what I mean when I say Dirtbikes are overpriced. It’s a fact but if you have the money to blow well just forget about the homeless an the starving kids in the world. Hopefully KTM is secretly building a village somewhere for there local homeless.👌👍🙏
@@shannonscott5788 That KTM cost more than my truck I drive everyday, it could drive me across the US tomorrow and tow 13k lbs. Not at any point did I compare this bike to a vehicle, I understand they are expensive and agree they are overpriced. I am not the type to forget about homeless people or starving kids in the world. I just try to make videos that might put a smile on someones face since we live in such a dark world.
@@kylecorbettshit i got mine for $msrp OTD😅 no tax no freight no prep, only had to pay doc fee for the title.
@@YZFMX256 Where were you able to get a deal like that at?
So to save everyone who actually wants to knows what’s up he’s just here complaining about visual effects 😂
All you can complain about when KTM makes a perfect machine 🤷♂️
Then you should of bought a xcf. Graphics you can change that like common the most petty review ever
